      Why did you have to post this follow-up? Now I’m all angried up.

      I don’t agree with hitting children as a means of discouraging bad behaviour, but I’m convinced some adults would benefit from being hit a bit more.

        I have said before if we invent time machines their sole legal purpose should be to only travel back in time to when some ass’s mom was pregnant with him and to point at her and say “see this bump? in 25 years he’s going to be an insufferable asshole.”

        then we offer mom a pill.

      Wow, his brain must be truly amazing to see that ai is being added to almost everything when no one else saw it.

      Gotta love how people don’t understand that “nonprofit” doesn’t mean “we don’t pay our employees and do everything for free”

      Damn, this dude is so high off of huffing his own farts…He’s insane and chauvinistic because he believes that his opinion has more value than the woman who is a driving force behind Signal.

      Edit: Apparently not a LLM simp, just a deluded reply guy fool that is trying to discredit Signal for some potentially dumb and petty reason. Here is a link to a conversation about it on Mastodon, a French Instance, but Auto translation makes this conversation decently easy to follow! https://tooting.ch/@spraoi/114702868206825606

          Hmm, by that reasoning and the history presented in those Mastodon posts…It would make sense that this was an attack of credibility instead of simping for LLMs. Strange, I wonder what happened that made him loathe Signal and want to see it lose credibility. Thank you for sharing a bit of the truth behind this odd situation.

      He’s an idiot.

      But if Signal wanted to, on the next Apple OSes and current Android version, you can invoke a small, local LLM without sending user data off-device.

      Personally, not sure where the value is: composing messages? summarizing them? Both have been tried and they’re pretty useless.

        Google and co have been trying to extract information from my emails for years. It’s presented as a way to automatically make appointments etc but in reality is probably used to build a thorough profile for advertisement

    There is financial incentive to make claims like this disregarding the facts during a bubble, because it indirectly makes the line go up. This phenomenon is most clearly visible in cryptocurrency communities.

    The problem is that if you made this claim about every messaging app, you’d probably be right more than 50% of the time.

      The problem is people on social media wording their guesses as if they knew something the reader doesn’t. “The engineers have already began” etc, just total useless bullshit.

    I mean, I do appreciate his argument, as it has been a very common trend for tech firms to say one thing while doing the exact opposite.

      If he had said, “I don’t believe you. I think you’re denying it publicly, but in secret you have probably already directed your engineers to lay out the groundwork,” that would be fine.

      He would be accusing her of lying, rather than assuming she was an ignorant female nobody whose knowledge could not compare with his insight of, “but other companies did it.”

          When is that power available to said penis owners? I feel like my life would benefit from heightened pattern recognition.

        The guy’s an idiot, no doubt. But he does have a point.

        People on social media come from all walks of life, and have many different voices, some of them retarded. If you don’t want to engage with people like him, that’s entirely understandable, and probably encouraged. If you DO want to engage with them, however, you should try and actually understand the message, instead of sneering like a fool because they didn’t phrase it in a way that is pleasing to whatever social sensibilities your clique favours.

      It’s not overtly, as the guy doesn’t seem to care whom he’s talking over. The guys just an ass.

      However, because it could be mansplaining, someone’s gonna decide it must be; can only be. Like some fascist screeching “anti-semite!” at the drop of a hat, calling every ass a man-splainer cheapens the term, chills actual discourse and increases the man-splanation amount.

      Buckle up.
